361: You can't take the sky from me (crossovers)
reccer's note. Some crossover recs to tide you over until Friday.
title. Barefoot Girl
author. kalquessa
characters. Dean, Alba DeTamble (The Time Traveler's Wife)
rating. PG-13
words. 11547
summary. The first time Dean meets Alba, she sees him first. (reccer's summary)
read this. The relationship between Dean and Alba makes for an absolutely lovely read. I adored the story so much that I wanted to learn more about where Alba came from and sought out the novel after the fact.
title. Finders keepers (the shield and the sword)
author. ultraviolet9a
characters. Sam/River Tam (Firefly)
rating. PG-13
words. 798
summary. “Sammysam,” she says, “it won’t end.” “What won’t?” he replies, though he’s not sure he wants to hear the answer. “Soldiers falling.”
read this. This story began my sordid love affair with my "Crossover Pairing o' Doom." And Vee writes it ridiculously well, setting River firmly within the Supernatural universe.
title. Dust in the Wind
author. lyra_wing
characters. Dean, Sam, Anansi, Baldr, Internet, Media, OCs (American Gods)
rating. PG-13
words. 798
summary. They are the gods of the open road and the hunt, of classic rock and stupid luck, of truck stops and greasy diners, of dollar beers and pool halls. (reccer's summary)
read this. The first time I read this, I could only stare at my monitor wondering what in the hell I could tell lyra_wing that didn't make me sound like anything but an absolute dork. Several years later, I still can't tell you how incredibly awesome this story is without sounding like an absolute dork.
title. them downtown boys sure talk gritty
author. musesfool
characters. Dean/Kaylee Frye (Firefly)
rating. NC-17
words. 1955
summary. Kaylee ain't looking to be worshipped so much as fucked well and hard, and Dean looks like the kind of man who knows his way around a girl's nethers.
read this. musesfool has such a gift with crossovers - there was more than one story of hers that I could have included on this list and they all should have been. But, in the end, I chose this one. Yes, as always, it's ridiculously hot. It's also the best Kaylee voice I have ever read. Period.
title. Mostly Poly-cotton Blend
author. katomyte
characters. Dean/Faith Lehane (Buffy the Vampire Slayer)
rating. NC-17
words. 6773
summary. Dean is 16, going on 17.
read this. You saw the pairing, right? Which would be enough for me. But then there's the fact that Dean is, well, a teenager. katomyte's characterization of Dean is exactly how I wish I could write him at that age.
title. A Pig And No Poke (A Non-Kosher 'Connection')
author. halfshellvenus
characters. Dean/Miss Piggy (The Muppet Show)
rating. PG
words. 708
summary. "He was the handsomest thing I've ever seen-and that includes Kermie," the porcine puppet said. She tossed her hair carelessly, accidentally tangling it over an ear. (reccer's summary)
read this. Sure, it's crack. And it's hilarious as all hell.
title. Z-Day
author. trolllogicfics
characters. Dean, Sam, Shaun, Liz
rating. PG-13
words. 3069
summary. It is commonly speculated that the pub called the Winchester was named for the rifle that sits above the bar. But that’s not true at all.
read this. Bloody. Brilliant.
title. Nothing Like Billy
author. embroiderama
characters. Ellen/Fox Mulder (The X-Files)
rating. NC-17
words. 2622
summary. In 1996, an FBI agent walks into Harvelle’s Roadhouse looking for information.
read this. Ellen is both tough and vulnerable, the best of what we've seen on the show. And Mulder is just as naughty as we always knew he would be. As I beta'd this story, the recommendation was seconded by nyoka.
